[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Explorer: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Grumman: [i]The [b]order made no distinction between foreigners and U.S. citizens[/b]. If they posed a ''continuing and imminent threat'' to the United States, they were eligible to be killed, former intelligence officials said.[/i][/QUOTE]Exactly. The order Bush signed makes no specific case for assassinating U.S. citizens without due process. Two: Just about anything can be described as posing "continuing and imminent threat" to the U.S. government, if it so chooses. [QUOTE] [i]The order was reviewed by top lawyers at the White House, CIA and Justice Department. With the ruins of the World Trade Center still smoking, [b]there was little discussion about whether U.S. citizens should have more protection[/b], the officials recalled. The feeling was that the government needed--and had-- broad authority to find and kill terrorists who were trying to strike the United States.[/i][/QUOTE]Confirming my point, that there was no legal oversight or even discussion specifically about assassinating U.S. citizens.
